CONSCIOUS FASHION.
Make a Difference:
with what we wear

Over the years of running my clothing line, I have learned a lot about fabric, and the process of making clothes.  And honestly, most of it makes me really sad.  The fashion industry in general isn’t very pretty.  But, I do believe it is changing as awareness grows.  And I believe that we can make a difference.

To me, conscious clothing means this:

  1. Eco conscious materials
  2. Animal cruelty free
  3. Ethical work conditions
  4. Recycled, upcycled, reused as much as possible

So this is what you’ll find in my recommendations.  I’m still very much on a journey to transition my purchases to pieces that I’m all extremely proud of.  I’m hoping you’ll help me with what you learn too.  Please comment with your favorite brands so that I can add them.
